I wanted to share with you some images taken for a jewellery designer Michail Jarovoj. When I first saw the jewellery I loved how the texture of the jewellery was soft with a plastic feel to touch.  This inspired me to create the make-up to compliment the jewellery but not take over the look. I decided to use pastel colours to create this look and hope you love the look?             Full Credit to: Make-up supplied by Ariane Poole Photographer:  Jade Photography Hair:  James Reid Follow my blog with Bloglovin

A couple of times a year I get to work alongside talented photographer Brett Harkness who offers training courses throughout the United Kingdom and France to existing photographers who want to learn some new skills in the camera world. One of the training courses is held at Middleton Lodge which for me is one of my Top 5 venues to visit and to get married…. it's a hidden gem in North Yorkshire. Tracy Kidd photographer was on the course yesterday and I have had the pleasure of working with her on studio shoots over the last year. Tracy has such a good eye at capturing people and I just love...

If you follow me on social media platforms you will see that I talk/tweet/post often about a lipstick range I just adore called Lipstick Queen. Lipstick Queen was founded when Poppy King was struggling to find that perfect red lipstick in her hometown of Melbourne Australia, therefore, she decided to create her own range. Twenty years on and the brand is going from strength to strength. Within the brand of Lipstick Queen there are separate ranges that consist of different textures. Today’s blog is about the range Saint. I love the Saint range which has 10% pigment which generally means...

RMK Beauty is one of the leading make-up artist brands in Japan and is widely recognised in Asia.   Here, in the United Kingdom, you can visit the counters at Selfridges London, Birmingham and Manchester. In my personal life, I am obsessed with anything from Japan. I am in love with the culture, history, sense of style through to the simplicity from how make-up brands showpiece themselves which...

If you are followers of my social media platforms you will notice that I talk a lot about Middleton Lodge and fondly call it my second home!! For me, Middleton Lodge in North Yorkshire, is a magical home where you feel like Lord and Lady every time you drive up to the front of the Georgian House. It has an amazing presence about the place and truly feels “like home”.  For weddings the building has the most impressive windows which, for me as a make-up artist, creates the perfect amount of natural light. I met Aileen for her pre-wedding make up trial a number of months before the actual...
